In Reply to: RE: Can any 100 watt amp double down to 400 watts at 2 ohms? posted by Rod M on April 12, 2022 at 17:51:11
400 Watts into 2 Ohms is about 14 Amps.
The output section has to be safe with that, the heatsinks have to be adequate for that, and finally the power supply has to be able to provide the current without collapsing the voltage.
The point here is that as long as the amp can make the current into the load such that the power is made, you're 'golden'.
Follow Ups:
This was what the term "high-current amp" was supposed to signify back in the day. The term was not necessarily meaningless but it may have been somewhat ill-defined.
which had nothing to do with the actual power the amp made. I gave an example earlier.
